Serra do Rio do Rastro is the most beautiful road of Brazil and one of the most scenics of the world. And that was the main reason Spoon, contente agency from Sweden, chose the location for Volvo Truck’s web-serie episode filmed in Brazil.
A multi cultural crew of Swedes, an Australian and some Brazilians joined to produce the film for 4 days in Serras Catarinenses – a complex of mountains and canyons located in the south of the country.
There were some amazing and challenging drone shots at the canyons and on a bridge over Pelotas River.
Axel, producer from Spoon, did an amazing job on his reserach for locations in Brazil. It was a great pleasure to help him and the crew to get all the permits and logistics organized for a smooth shooting.
The final result is a beautiful episode about Driver’s World with Aldinan, the Brazilian truck driver – main character of the film.

Rio de Janeiro is one of the most known cities in the world. Filmmakers come from all over the world after its famous beaches like Ipanema and Copacabana.
They also come after its many unspoiled beaches, the Favelas and it’s local communities, the Carnival, Tijuca National Park, the Funk Carioca, and much more. But what really makes Rio de Janeiro special it is the unique culture, which is unlike any other in the world.
Filming in Rio has its challenges. To film in the National Parks it is important to get permits from the park managers – each park is run by a different government agency – so the bureaucracy can seem overwhelming. But Fixer Brazil can help you over the many red tapes. We have a local team of locations managers and producers that will get things done.

Renato Falzoni from 10e20 Filmes is an excellent fixer with in depth knowledge of the country. He is organised, determined and has a great ‘can do’ attitude. He was able to open doors that I thought were double padlocked, and quickly. I can highly recommend him. Paul Reddish, Director
Free Spirit Film
“Brazil – A Natural History” is a 5 part series produced by Terra Mater Factual Studios for National Geographic. 10e20 Filmes was our partner in Brazil and they provided all the administrative and logistical support to produce this blue chip series. 10e20 Filmes proved to be a reliable partner with a passion for film making. On our next projects in Brazil I will certainly work with them again and I can recommend that you do the same, you will not be disappointed. Wolfgang Knoepfler, Line Producer
